THE GIRLS THAT ARE WANTED

The girls that are wanted are good girls
Good from the heart to the lips;
Pure as the lily is white and pure,
From it's heart to its sweet leaf tips.
The girls that are wanted are home girls
Girls that are mothers right hand,
That fathers and brothers can trust to,
And the little ones understand.
Girls that are fair On the bearthstone,
And pleasant when nobody sees;
Kind and sweet to their own folk,
Ready and anxious to please.
Ghe girls that are wanted are wise girls
That know what TO do and to say:
That drive with smile or a soft word
The wrath of the household away.
The girls that are wanted are girls of sense,
Whom fashion can never deceive;
Who can follow whatever is pretty,
And dare. what is silly, to leave.
The girls that are wanted are careful girls,
Who count what thing will cost;
Who use with prudent, generous hand
But see that nothing Is lost.
The girls that are wanted are girls with hearts;
They are wanted for mothers and wives;
Wanted to cradle in loving arms,
The strongest and iraiiest of lives.
The clever, the witty, the brilliant girl,
They are very few, understand;
But oh for the wise, loving home girls
There's a constant and steady demand.

"A Nova Scotia mother, Nj

A Nova Scotia mother, Mrs.
Mcpherson, placed her three year-old

When the mother discovered what

Senator ingalls,, in his lecture
on woman suffrage at Abilene, took
the ground that no one ought to vote
who cannot fight. OF course this rule
would disfranchise old or infrm men,
however intelligent. It would dis.
franchise all veterans of the war who
can no longer handle bayonet. As
long as the old, the sickly, the halt,
the lame, and the blind among men
are permitted to vote, some better
reason must be found for excluding
women than the fact that they can
not fight.

HONEY.

1t is now pretty well known that
honey c~rystalizes under the action Of
light, but remains liquid in a perfectly
dark room Why this change takes
place it was at length suspected to be
due to an action similar to photogra-
ply. AS food for bees it is worthless
when c~rystalized. Hence the reason
why bees succeed only when working
in the dark. In relation to the change
produced in honey by exposure to the
light, M. Scheibler found that the
anne agent which alters the molecular
arrangement of iodine of silver on the
excited collodion plate and determines
the formation Of camphor and iodine
crystals in a bottle the syrup
honey to assume a crystalline form.
This experimenter inclosed honey in
stopped TASKS, some of which were,
kept in perfect darkness, others ex
posed to the light. The invariable re,
suit was, the summed portion rapidly
crystalized, while that kept in the
dark remained perfectly liquid

Now here is a horse having four,
and probably six, strains of blood
from which singly, or in conjunction,
have been produced hundreds Of great
t~rotters. Now this same horse has a
single and attenuated strain of another
blood which has, in conjunction with
some one Or more of the other strains,
entered in the composition of some
dozen, not more, of great horses, but
which has not alone ever produced
one. Yes, one-Geo. M. Patchen was
a great horse. Yet, we are asked to
believe that all of Sultan's greatness,
and he is a very great horse, is de-
rived from the single and attenuated
strain.
On a par with this reasoning is the
reasoning of the advocates of running
blood in the trotter. Whenever n
suggests that the true way to breed
trotters is to breed from trotters he is
met by the assertion that you must
have a little thoroughbred, and the
names of Maud S. and Jay-eye Su ale
invariably quoted to sustain the the
DRY. For convenience of comparison,
I present also in tabulation the pedi-
grees of these two horses.
